Sea Cadets from Suffolk and Norfolk took part in the Trafalgar Day Parade held in Bury St Edmunds on 15th October 2023. The day commemorates the Battle of Trafalgar which took place on the 21st October 1805.
The Sea Cadets had previously marched through the town and held a service in the Cathedral. This short video shows the march from the Cathedral past the saluting dais before performing a short sunset service.

That was very enjoyable and the cadets and their NCOs and Officers did themselves proud. So good to see Trafalgar Day being recognised. Interesting to hear the last post played on a xylophone lyre…as always, thank you MrBaton.

Wanders in looking about for Delvin-Pedia. He must be hiding in here somewhere, the word "Trafalgar" is Written above the Door! Awww Bless!! Guys, before I go any further, Today is not the Day to Pick Holes in Cadets Drill or Blather on about the Suitability of allowing Cadets to Parade on Special Days. Every body needs to start somewhere. This is a Great little Parade for Trafalgar Day. A first for me is seeing a British Military Band Marching with Xylophone Lyres. I've only ever seen European Bands with them before, German, Norwegian, Danish & Swedish Bands. They're really Quite impressive & Sound very Pure & Bright. Definitely the First Time I've Heard " The Last Post" Played on them. A Totally different "Royal Oak" too. It's great these Cadets are Learning about the History of Maritime Britain, which can only instill a Sense of Pride & Respect in their Country's Maritime History. What a Great Video Mr B, I really don't know how you find all these things, but your 'Field Trips' are always interesting & good!! Thanks for Sharing. I'm sure some of these Cadets will watch it with Interest.
